News : 30th November 2002

Ex-Be Bop Deluxe leader Bill Nelson is playing a one off show at the Jazz Cafe, London on 8th December 2002.

Due to guest with the band on a few numbers is Kate St John (who was part of the Channel Light Vessel project with Bill). Bill had this to say recently on his website www.billnelson.com:

“Unfortunately it wasn’t possible for Kate St John to make this (16 Nov 02) rehearsal (as she lives in London), so we will have to rehearse with Kate at the soundcheck on the day of the concert. Scary,last minute stuff !!. I’ve sent her a CDR of the tracks that I’d like her to play on but, of course,the final choice is hers, depending how much time she has to work on the music. She’s a busy mum these days and has responsibilities to her young daughter. Fingers crossed that she’ll be confident enough to take on board as much as possible”

The Jazz Cafe is located at: 5 Parkway,Camden Town, London. Nearest Underground station: Camden Town (turn right out of tube station into Parkway).
